"Randt: The Free Mages was very well received here; twelve mages have even joined our ranks."
"Uther: a few wealthy merchants have contacted us and inquired about the ways they could help us financially."
"North River village: Many mage hermits around here - two of them have joined us."

Luckily for them, the Church was not prepared for their second attack.
